Granite Works in Tight Spaces On Mountain Range While Southern California contends with a historic atmospheric CEG CORRESPONDENT river, causing mudslides, crews from Granite Construction are engaged in road repairs and clearing operations caused by previous rock and mudslides in several areas to restore access through the Sequoia National Forest near Kings Canyon National Park (KCNP) in the southern Sierra Nevada mountain range. The contract was awarded to Granite last August by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and is expected to be completed in June. “Granite has a long history of partnering with Caltrans District 6 to find innovative solutions to urgent and complex transportation system needs,” said Granite Vice President of Regional Operations Carter Rohrbough. “There was a total of four major washouts along SR 180 that damaged the integrity of the roadway and blocked access, three of which impacted lanes for travel in both eastbound and westbound directions,” said Alex Aguilera, Caltrans public information officer, District 6. Granite Construction was tasked with making repairs at California’s Kings To date, Granite has completed washout repairs, cleaned Canyon National Park in the southern Sierra Nevada after a total of four major and repaired existing culverts, installed new culverts and washouts along SR 180 damaged the integrity of the roadway and blocked access By Irwin Rapoport

BABA’s Policies Bruising IIJA Benefits Inflation Has Contractors Taking Pass On Federally-Funded Transportation Projects Construction contractors are between a rock and a hard place: What the Biden administration’s IIJA has gifted with a hike in construction work, Buy America policies have taken away by making the work much pricier to perform. Construction costs rose almost 3 percent during the first quarter of 2023, and contractors have seen a 50 percent increase over the past two years. That has the transportation industry nervous for the future. Last year’s National Highway Construction Cost Index (NHCCI) shows it reached “a new all-time high” in the first quarter of 2023. The Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) reported an increase of 2.7 percent from the last quarter of 2022. During the 2.5-year span, second quarter 2022 grew faster than see POLICY page 48

Most materials prices have seen modest inflation while the cost of asphalt rose 20.5 percent in the second quarter of last year.

DEVELON Celebrates First Anniversary of New Brand Name It’s been one year since the familiar brand of orange construction equipment, formerly known as Doosan construction equipment, was renamed DEVELON. Company officials hosted a special media event on Jan. 17, 2023, in Las Vegas. It was during this event that DEVELON leaders unveiled the new brand for the first time, marking the beginning of a new era for the construction equipment manufacturer. Under the new brand name, DEVELON is building on its success in North America over the past 30 years and throughout the world for 80 years. It has produced innovative products and solutions that have further solidified its status as a global leader in construction equipment and solutions in the construction industry. “Early on, DEVELON took a strategic approach to launching the new brand,” said Todd Roecker, vice president of growth initiatives. “We leveraged ConExpo-Con/AGG 2023, helping customers recognize that we were the same company and product line, not a new entity to the North American market. We had a lot of interest and buy-in from dealers and customers. Since then, we’ve had tremendous achievements, including rebranding and expanding our product offerings, growing our dealer network and building on the success of the new brand. “Another example of our early success was participating in the AEM Celebration of Construction on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. It was there that we joined other leading manufacturing companies to showcase the DEVELON brand and the latest safety features for the construction industry, including our exclusive Transparent Bucket feature.”

increasing its participation in industry-wide trade shows as well as other local and regional shows this year. The company is exhibiting at World of Concrete and The American Rental Association (ARA) Show. DEVELON also will be making its debut at World of Asphalt in March and Equip Exposition in October. DEVELON had a larger presence at the 2024 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Jan. 9–12, showing full-size autonomous equipment prototypes for the first time in North America. The company also focused on promoting equipment that can create a safer job site and environment for customers. “Trade shows are an important way to get our brand out there, where we can tell our own story the way we want it to be told,” said Roecker. “They open up opportunities to show off new products and innovations and reach new customers who are working in various applications that our company is interested in exploring.” Growing Dealer Network Another result of DEVELON’s rebrand and growAnother result of DEVELON’s rebrand and growing industry pres- ing industry presence is the expansion of its dealer netence is the expansion of its dealer network to more than 200 loca- work to more than 200 locations in the United States tions in the United States and Canada — a new pinnacle for DEVEL- and Canada — a new pinnacle for DEVELON dealership locations. ON dealership locations. “Every dealer worked hard on converting their dealerships to the new brand when it was announced, from signage to new machine decals and uniforms,” said Roecker. “Due to their efforts promoting DEVELON in their markets, we’ve received more interest from new dealers and customers. We’ve also been able to hire better talent as a result. This transition of the company name would not have been successful without the support from our dealer network.”

Innovative Technologies, Product Line Expansion Since the transition, DEVELON has introduced innovative technologies to better shape the future of the construction industry and change how work is done. It demonstrated Concept-X2 autonomous construction equipment at ConExpo in March. The company showed safety innovations such as the optional Successes include introducing innovative technologies, expanding around view monitor (AVM) camera system, object the product line and growing its dealer network. detection technologies and the industry first and only transparent bucket which is standard on all -7 Series 2023 and newer wheel loader models. Efforts also have been focused on advancing sustainable development through alternative energy sources of power for construction equipment like mini excavators. The company also increased its product offering, adding a second dozer model: the DD130. It expanded its mini excavator lineup with the DX42-7, DX62R-7 and DX63-7. In 2024, DEVELON will launch its first compact track loader. “By growing our construction equipment offering quickly and efficiently in North America, we can now be a full-line, single-source provider for our dealers and customers,” said Roecker. “Because of this expansion, we have established a stronger presence in the construction industry and look forward to “Early on, DEVELON took a strategic approach to launching the continuing this momentum in the years to come.” Increased Trade Show Participation Due to the success at ConExpo, DEVELON is

Superior Standard Warranty A major launch in early 2024 is the 36-month, 5,000-hour full-coverage standard warranty on a purchase of a new DEVELON mini excavator, crawler excavator, wheel excavator, log loader, road builder, wheel loader or dozer. “We’re pleased to offer one of the best construction equipment warranties in North America,” said Roecker. “We’re also very aggressive with our finance programs and rates as low as 0 percent for 60 months. We have some of the best finance rates in the industry and have an outstanding dealer network to support these programs. We are looking forward to expanding on and developing new programs for our customers.”

Looking to Future Since the name change, DEVELON has focused heavily on promoting the brand. However, as the company moves forward it will be putting a larger focus on connecting with customers, dealers and the industry. “We will place an emphasis on telling the story of who we are so that we can create more meaningful interactions,” said Roecker. “In addition, we’ll add more products to our portfolio, like the compact track loader, and will be aggressive with our warranty programs. We’ll also focus on adding the right dealers and partners to make ourselves more competitive and to new brand,” said Todd Roecker, vice president of growth initia- satisfy customers.

Half of State Construction Jobless Rates Down in Dec. 23 The not seasonally adjusted national construction unemployment rate at 4.4 percent was unchanged in December 2023 from the previous year, according to a state-by-state analysis of U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data released by Associated Builders and Contractors. The analysis also found that 25 states had lower unemployment rates over the same period, four were unchanged and 21 states were higher. National NSA payroll construction employment was 230,000 higher than in December 2022. Starting in February 2022 through December 2023, seasonally adjusted construction employment exceeded its prepandemic peak of 7.6 million. In December 2023, 31 states had lower construction unemployment rates compared to December 2019, three states’ rates (Missouri, Oklahoma and Oregon) were unchanged and 16 states had higher rates. “Continued high interest rates have been a drag on plans for new construction,” said Bernard Markstein, president and chief economist of Markstein Advisors, who conducted the analysis for ABC. “However, industry employment remains healthy, as builders work on their backlog of projects and employers fill some of their advertised posi-

tions. Nonresidential construction activity and employment is benefiting from federal funding and tax incentives for manufacturers, as well as funding for state and local infrastructure projects.” Month-to-Month Fluctuations National and state unemployment rates are best evaluated on a year-over-year basis because these industry-specific rates are not seasonally adjusted. However, due to the shifting effects on the economy from high interest rates, energy price fluctuations and other national and international developments, month-tomonth comparisons offer insight into the variable economic environment impact from these factors on construction employment. In December 2023, 32 states had lower estimated construction unemployment rates than in November, 17 states had higher rates and one (Maryland) had the same rate. Top Five States The five states with the lowest estimated

both came in with their lowest December rate on record for the second time (Delaware matching its December 2018 rate and Tennessee its 2022 rate). Note that Delaware’s unemployment rate is for construction, mining and logging.

NSA construction unemployment rates for December 2023 were: • Maryland, 0.5 percent • Georgia, 1.7 percent • Utah, 1.9 percent • Delaware and Tennessee (tie), 2.1 percent Maryland and Georgia each posted their lowest December NSA estimated construction unemployment rate on record. Utah had its second lowest December rate, behind last year’s 1.8 percent. Delaware and Tennessee

Bottom Five States The five states with the highest December 2023 estimated NSA construction unemployment rates were: • Vermont, 7.3 percent • Illinois, 7.5 percent • Alaska, 9.4 percent • Connecticut, 10.5 percent • Rhode Island, 11.3 percent Alaska posted its lowest December NSA estimated construction unemployment rate on record and had the largest monthly decline in its rate (down 4.8 percent). Vermont had the third largest year-over-year drop in its unemployment rate, down 2.6 percent, behind South Dakota (down 3.4 percent) and Minnesota (down 2.8 percent).

Job Openings Stay Elevated in Dec. The construction industry had 449,000 job openings on the last day of December, according to an Associated Builders and Contractors analysis of data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey. JOLTS defines a job opening as any unfilled position for which an employer is actively recruiting. Industry job openings decreased by 21,000 last month and are down by 39,000 from the same time last year. “The construction industry averaged 445,000 job openings per month in the fourth quarter of 2023,” said ABC Chief Economist Anirban Basu. “That’s the highest quarterly level on record and a strong indication that the labor shortages that have long plagued the construction industry remain firmly in place. With more than half of contractors expecting to increase their staffing levels over the next six months, according to ABC’s Construction Confidence Index, the supply of workers is unlikely to meet demand for the first half of 2024. “There is, however, some good news regarding worker availability,” said Basu. “While contractors are still laying off workers at a historically low rate, the rate at which construction workers are quitting has fallen below 2019 levels. This is likely a reflection of falling demand for labor in industries that compete with construction for talent, including trade, transportation and utilities, which has seen a 25 percent decline in job openings over the past year.” For more information, visit www.abc.org. 

orld of Concrete recently concluded its 50th anniversary in Las Vegas.

The MB America booth always draws a crowd to get a first-hand look at its attachments for crushing and recycling materials, available for all types of construction equipment.

AUSA’s Ignasi Moner stands with his company’s D601AHG articulated dumper at World of Concrete 2024. The technologically advanced D601 features the ECO Mode system, which contributes to the machine being both efficient and environmentally friendly.

The 2024 edition, held Jan. 22-25, 2024, gathered nearly 60,000 registered professionals from various industry sectors for three days of exhibition and four days of education, a 23 percent increase from 2023. More than 1,400 companies and an all-time high 185 education sessions highlighted the event. The second largest tradeshow in Vegas, covering more than 700,000 sq. ft. of indoor and outdoor space, convened large crowds in the exhibit halls, packed competitions and at-capacity training sessions. More than 450 international exhibitors from around the world, a milestone 325 first-time exhibitors, and well-known brand names comprised the tools, resources and tricks fueling the future of the trade. New audiences and the incoming next generation of concrete professionals continue to be a focus for increasing visibility in the sector. “Every year, World of Concrete serves as the cornerstone where concrete and masonry professionals exchange knowledge and hone skills that propel businesses forward,” said Jackie James, vice president of World of Concrete. “We are proud to host the global meeting point that serves the tradespeople who are building the future of America. We emphasize creating real-world scenarios, hands-on situations to try and test products and share expertise, which is what makes WOC so unique and our community so special. We look forward to continuing to share the latest and greatest in concrete and masonry for another 50 years to come.” Events, in part, included the Concrete Industry Management (CIM) live and silent auctions, raising a collective $1.8 million for the Concrete Industry Management programs at five public universities, Chico State, Middle Tennessee, New Jersey’s Science & Technology, Texas State and South Dakota State, all of which offer four-year degrees in CIM. Auction items included a concrete mixer truck donated by Mack Trucks Inc. and Revolution Concrete Mixers; a Peterbilt and ConTech mixer truck; and a concrete pumper donated by Alliance Concrete Pumps and Pape Kenworth. In honor of the 50th anniversary, World of Concrete donated 50 trees to the Las Vegas Tree Initiative. The ongoing program aims to lower the urban heat island effect that currently makes Las Vegas the fastest-warming city in the United States. World of Concrete will return to the Las Vegas Convention Center Jan. 2123, 2025 (Education 20-23).  CEG (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2024 Construction Equipment Guide.

How Optimize Your Business With Compact Equipment By John Weber RDO EQUIPMENT CO.

Mini-excavators, skid steers, compact track loaders — contractors of all sizes hail these for their versatility and adaptability across various tasks. Whether digging, grading, lifting or hauling, these machines can be equipped with various attachments, making them multi-functional powerhouses. This adaptability saves time and space and minimizes the need for numerous specialized machines, effectively reducing costs and the environmental footprint. Besides adaptability, contractors cite small construction equipment as their first steppingstone to grow their business. It’s cost-effective, has low-financing options and is easily found at local dealerships. Compact equipment may be the key for those wanting to open the door to a new opportunity. Here are some challenges contractors said were solved by owning compact construction equipment. Managing High Fuel Costs With national average diesel fuel prices soaring at around $4 per gal., compact construction equipment (CCE) has become the preferred choice for contractors handling projects with tight budgets and schedules.

track loaders and compact tractors. Other contractors expand their consistent productivity through Topcon's GPS technology, including MC-Mobile, which combines machine control and survey technology to let compact equipment operators measure, design and build jobs with the same system.

Kleemann Makes Plant Coupling Safer Via Wireless Radio Clever line coupling allows Kleemann plants to be easily coupled with one another. The system has now been extended by a wireless version of the safety coupling. The crushing process of the Kleemann crushing plants is optimized automatically by the innovative feed control CFS (Continuous Feed System) so that material is always conveyed with maximum efficiency through the machines. At the same time, the filling level of the plant’s crushing chamber is monitored. When the filling level reaches a height that can be defined in advance, the material feed of the machine is adjusted. This system forms the perfect basis for the line coupling of an interlinked plant train. The optionally available probes at the crusher discharge conveyor and/or fine grain conveyor of the upstream machine monitor the filling level of the feeding unit of the respective upstream machine. When the filling level also reaches a defined height here, the output of the upstream plant is temporarily reduced. Safely Connected Via Radio By Means of ‘Wireless Line Coupling’ If an emergency stop button is pressed on the plant train, all machines are safely stopped. This is guaranteed by the safety coupling of the plants. For this purpose, apart from the cable connection new technology also is available: coupling via a radio system. The “Wireless line coupling” is easier to handle and makes the typical workday of the

operator easier. Complex cable routing is no longer necessary and easy conversion of the plants is also possible. Due to the intelligent line coupling from Kleemann, overload situations and damage

are prevented. All of this combined results in a high availability and output with low wear. The new technology “Wireless line coupling” is currently available as an option for the jaw crushers MOBICAT MC 110(i)

EVO2 and MC 120(i) PRO, cone crushers MOBICONE MCO 90(i) EVO2 and MCO 110(i) PRO and the impact crushers MOBIREX MR 110(i) EVO2, MR 130(i) EVO2 and MR 130(i) PRO. 

Crushing plants can now also be safely connected per radio due to the Kleemann “wireless line coupling.”

Fecon Launches Platform to Enhance Mulcher Performance Fecon LLC, a global manufacturer of heavy-duty site preparation attachments and forestry accessories, has launched Fusion, a user-friendly telematics platform that uses modern features such as automatic machine calibration, location services and performance tracking to make industry-changing productivity gains in mulching operations. Ushering in the next generation in mulching, Fusion automatically calibrates the attachment to the carrier in real-time to optimize performance, minimize downtime and expand the machine’s lifespan. Fusion is initially available on high-flow Bull Hog and Blackhawk attachments. Fecon brings intelligent control technology to a new level in the mulching industry, drastically improving mulching operations. The ingenuity of Fusion’s performance lies in its simplicity. From the get-go, Fusion automates mulcher set up to improve performance and productivity through its Plug n’ Play design that eliminates manual setup and tuning. With this feature, customers can attach their mulcher to any compatible carrier and run the machine with increased performance. The mulcher is optimized to the carrier and working conditions at all times with no extra work for the user.

Another attractive feature is how the technology continually collects and adapts to information based on dynamic conditions such as temperature, altitudes, carrier settings and carrier efficiency. At the start of the day Fusion will detect a cold carrier and automatically adjust and tailor machine settings to those that work best in colder temperatures. As the machine warms up throughout the day, Fusion will tune the settings for those higher temperatures. The machine starts learning as soon as it is attached to a carrier, but an operator can choose to initiate a learn sequence through the Fusion app. This learning system ensures a Fecon mulcher is always operating at peak performance. “One of the biggest struggles both dealers and operators face is tuning the mulching head to the carrier,” said Ryan Bricker, Fecon senior product manager. “We’ve completely removed that hassle and any associated delay by offering this Plug n’ Play design. It ensures that no matter the carrier, its age and condition or the location and temperature, our customers will receive maximum performance out of the Fecon mulching head. And it makes it easy for them to swap carriers.”

Fusion’s benefits are not exclusive to its automatic calibration as its continuous collection of mulcher operational data enhances productivity in a variety of ways. Fleet managers, for example, can use the data to assess and improve machine performance, note a machine’s last location or identify problems in operations. Dealers can use the data to better service their customers by quickly identifying the source of a problem in machine function and make swift corrections. With Fusion, users can see up to 50 percent faster rotor recovery times, 30 percent fewer stalls and 40 percent increase in jobsite efficiency, the manufacturer said. Fusion works seamlessly with the Fecon mobile application, available in the Apple App Store, allowing users to easily incorporate the benefits of Fusion into their day-today operations. Users can use the Fecon Fusion app for several tasks, including changing the mulcher settings, initiating the learn function or simply viewing real-time information on how the mulcher is running. The real-time display offers operators convenient access to crucial information. Fecon plans to continue to expand the benefits of the Fusion system by adding additional features to the software such as

performance modes that will allow users to automatically adjust machine settings to match the current job. Similar to a four-wheel drive vehicle where a user has the option to select “snow” or “mud” based on current conditions, the upcoming performance modes will tailor the mulcher to the optimal settings for that particular application. These developments demonstrate Fecon’s commitment to continuing to evolve and revolutionize mulching applications through real-time data and automation. While automated technology in equipment can sometimes seem intimidating, Jeff Stanley, Fecon’s senior vice president of product development, assures customers there is nothing intimidating about it. “With Fusion, we’re adding so much value to the customer and simplifying the product. It has more technology, tools and expanded data capabilities, but it’s important that customers realize how easy it is to use.” Through its comprehensive connectivity, Fusion is pioneering the future of outstanding mulching performance and empowering users to make real time data-driven decisions, optimize their operations and immediately achieve greater levels of productivity. 

Crews Work to Restore Access to Sequoia National Forest MOUNTAIN from page 1

where regular-sized vehicles were not an option. Many work locations required 4-wheel drive trucks to transport crews and navigate the poor road conditions, especially during inclement weather. “The storm damage eroded many sections of the roadway where an entire lane or more has been washed away leaving barely a single lane of travel and in some instances on blind curves.” said Grimm. “We’ve used two-way radios for communication around blind curves.” On the positive side, there are no utility issues. Granite has provided crew accommodations to support the teams working on the project. “We have employees staying on-site in RV trailers at our base camp where internet service is provided,” said Grimm. “Employees have the option to stay on-site or drive home.” The plan for the clearing and removal of the debris is based on reuse and minimizing the transportation of materials off-site. The debris consisted of rock, dirt and vegetation. “Granite’s plan is to use the material from the mud/rockslides to construct embankments at the washouts around the project,” Grimm explained. “Most of the material has been removed from the roadway at this stage of the work. Rock from the rockslides was salvaged and sized when needed by blasting, screening or with the use of hydraulic hammers and reused on-site as rip-rap and common fill. Some rocks that fell onto the roadway were nearly the size of a school bus. The use of existing on-site material eliminated costly export and import of replacement materials, helping reduce the overall cost of the repairs significantly. Vegetation debris was hauled offsite to dump.” Most of the material was separated on-site when doable. “This reduced the material that needed to be exported from the site and maximized the amount of material that could be incorporated into the reconstruction process,” continued Grimm. “There are soil grading requirements for the embankment construction, so Granite ran the material through a grizzly screen to make a 3-inch minus material.” Approximately 60,000 cu. yds. of soil and rock have been moved throughout the site using Super 10-wheeler trucks and a Cat 740B haul truck. Given the extreme nature of the project site, the right equipment was crucial for the success of these operations. Crews also used: Cat excavators: two 352s (one with a breaker excavator), 320, 330, 335 and a 308 (mini); loaders: a Cat 966, Cat 963 track loader and several John Deere models — a 744 and 210 skip loader; a John Deere 710 backhoe; Cat D6 and D4 dozers; and a Cat 140 motor grader. The construction of the retaining walls required a change in plans. “Originally it was anticipated that several walls and even a viaduct would need to be constructed to safely restore and reopen the roadway,” said Grimm. “However, Caltrans and Granite collaborated on design solutions for each repair area and only one soldier pile wall and one stabilized soil wall are being constructed. Other locations were repaired using conventional earthen fills and many of the slopes were stabilized with rip-rap from on-site rock slides or mined from on-site locations.” Over the next few months, efforts will focus on the installation of The plan of attack has crews drill for piles and wood lagging and steel piles for a retaining wall, rebuilding a then install lagging, ground anchors, piping and failed slope with wire mesh baskets, rock, soil and geo grid fabslab and barrier wall.

headwalls and finished slide cleanup. Over the next few months, efforts will focus on the installation of wood lagging and steel piles for a retaining wall, rebuilding a failed slope with wire mesh baskets, rock, soil and geo grid fabric. Roadway improvements — including concrete barrier, safety enhancements, paving repairs and placement of erosion control products — all are on tap. The project has its fair share of challenges. “We’re working in a remote location with little to no cell service,” said Jeff Grimm, Granite’s Fresno area manager. “The project team set up Starlink and a base camp for safety and communication. The project is 20 miles long and required our teams to work multiple headings simultaneously to adequately progress the work. This has created communication and logistic challenges that required extra planning to keep crews safe. The terrain is steep and rocky — just driving between work locations can be dangerous. “Snow and ice are also issues,” he added. “The work is primarily at elevations between 3,000 to 4,000 feet, however, accessing the work requires traversing a pass at 6,800 feet. Usually this section of highway is closed from November to May each year, but due to damage from the hard winter of 2022-2023, this section of roadway has been impassable and remained closed to the public since November 2022. To keep the work moving, Granite is maintaining the roadway by plowing and sanding to remove snow and mitigate icy conditions, which allows the work to continue during the winter months.” Safety is a constant concern and taken very seriously. “Due to the steep terrain and tightly radiused corners with rock outcroppings, most deliveries of equipment and materials happen miles above the actual work locations in a large turnout called the Helipad — named for the fact it is an actual dirt Helipad for emergency fire and evacuation equipment during the summer months — at the top of the mountain,” Grimm explained. This requires double handling of most deliveries and tracking equipment long distances, so logistics are not easy. To assess the work early in construction, a small side-byside ATV was used to gain access to portions of the job

To date, Granite has completed washout repairs, cleaned and repaired existing culverts, installed new culverts and headwalls and finished slide cleanup.

piles, timber lagging and concrete slab and barrier. The retaining walls are up to 10 ft. below the existing roadway on the down slope side. “Working next to a steep slope posed a safety challenge,” said Grimm. This work has operators using a Komatsu PC490 LC-10 excavator, a TR150-60 auger, John Deere excavators and a reach lift. For drainage systems, crews are installing corrugated metal pipe and other elements. “Some of the drainage systems require the installation of cast-in-place concrete headwalls,” said Grimm. “One system required the installation of pipe, a drain inlet and a grated line drain. Determining the size and quantity of each system, dig/set pipe and backfill was a factor in the work. The challenges were digging and setting in steep terrain. We utilized a track loader for this. All the systems were in the roadway and access was cut off to the job site during installation.” Drain inlet and a grated line drain are among the construction materials used. The reconstruction of sections of SR 180 is addressing various types of damage to the asphalt surface including divots from falling rock, potholes from failed culverts, failures from mud and rockslides on top of the roadway and areas where the entire roadway was destroyed from fill slope failures and erosion. “We will fine grade and place asphalt during spring when temperatures are favorable,” said Grimm. “Currently, aggregate base is placed to allow the highway to be passible and we are reestablishing failed shoulders and guardrail only.” Granite’s management team includes Construction Manager Kevin Paul, Project Manager Chris Fiester and Project Superintendent Eric Rawls. “The team is collaborative, innovative and adaptive to changing conditions,” said Grimm. “The crews are hardworking and putting in long hours.”  CEG (All photos courtesy of Granite Construction.)

FAE Debuts BL0/EX Forestry Mulcher Ignite Attachments FAE introduced the new BL0/EX forestry mulcher for 2 to 4 ton excavators, bringing Bite Limiter technology to even the smallest excavators. The BL0/EX is one of the smallest fixed-tooth mulchers on the market, capable of shredding light vegetation, shrubs and trees up to 3.2 in. in diameter. It can be used for vegetation maintenance along roadsides, railroad tracks, canals, rivers and lakes, for managing and protecting wildlife habitats, and for maintaining commercial green areas and sporting grounds. The head is designed for high-productivity, durability and easy maintenance. Bite Limiter technology is ideal for high-productivity vegetation management, designed with reliable and efficient shredding in mind. The rotor with Bite Limiter technology comes with special wear-resistant steel profiles that limit the reach (bite) of the teeth. This reduces power demand and promotes a consistent working speed, ensuring excellent performance when mulching any type of wood. Bite Limiter technology also minimizes rotor stalling and optimizes fuel consumption, according to the manufacturer. The BL0/EX’s Direct Drive motor minimizes maintenance and enables a more compact body size for better maneuverability. The head’s clean profile and compact design are also made possible by the hydraulic block with a flow regulator valve built into the motor, along with the thumb bracket in the frame. The new BL0/EX can be equipped with BL/MINI blades or C/3/MINI teeth and is available in two working widths: 22 and 31.5 in.

Rototilt Completes Its Product Line It has been a year since Rototilt launched its new Rototilt Control product line, which has been positively received by the market. Today, Rototilt can announce that the product line is now complete, as the two smallest tiltrotators receive their successors in the RC series. “This is what we’ve been working towards all along,” said Sven-Roger Ekström, product manager at Rototilt. The company has now launched sales of all the tiltrotators in the RC Tiltrotators product line. The last to be released are the RC1 and RC2 compact tiltrotators. This means that excavators from weighing from 1.6 to 47.4 tons can now use the products that make up the Rototilt Control product line. According to Rototilt, compact tiltrotators have increased in popularity in recent years and have become bestsellers in a small format. “We are seeing more and more people discovering the benefits of tiltrotators for small excavators,” said Ekström. “They work well in confined spaces and the extra flexibility that a tiltrotator provides can make a big dif-

ference. We are happy to also be able to offer our latest product line to users who work in this type of environment.” In contrast to the previous R series, the SecureLock safety lock and the ILS central lubrication system are included as standard with RC1 and RC2. Another piece of good news is that these models also come with all the benefits of the RC System control system. This means that users can use RC Connect for remote support as well as Rototilt’s own new RC Joysticks. “Users who want to take their tiltrotator system to the next level will be pleased to learn that RC Joysticks and RC Connect will also be available for the very smallest excavators,” said Ekström. “Both this and the previous options that are now included as standard give the system that little bit extra. The whole system has been given a boost, both in terms of servicing and safety.”

New Safety Standard Sets High Standards The fact that all tiltrotators in the RC series have the SecureLock safety lock as standard means that the entire chain now satisfies the new requirements according to the EN474 standard. According to Rototilt’s lead engineer, Niklas Bjuhr, this is something that has been a priority throughout the project. “We view it as only natural that our products must live up to the market’s demands and current regulations, so there was never any question about this when we developed RC Tiltrotators,” said Bjuhr. “SecureLock is an innovative solution for locking your work tool securely and easily. It provides reassurance for our users.” For more information, visit www.rototilt.com. 

Topcon Positioning Systems Announces New Global Sustainability Initiatives Topcon Positioning Systems announced a series of new developments and initiatives as part of its ongoing sustainability efforts. First, the formation of a new global team dedicated to sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR) has been announced. It will be led by Michael Gomes as vice president of Global Sustainability and CSR. Much of his career with Topcon has been dedicated to the advancement of more sustainable agricultural practices. He will now lead a global team dedicated to sustainability for all markets and product lines, which will connect into Topcon’s parent organization, Topcon Corporation, in Japan to effectively support the corporation’s multiple divisions. “Sustainability has long been a part of the fabric of Topcon and is something we take very seriously as we take actions to support our global initiatives,” said Gomes. “As we look ahead, we’ll endeavor to support, at every level, the advancement of the industries and communities we serve.

The work we do is modeled on the sustainable development goals adopted at the United Nations Summit in 2015 and has been part of Topcon’s vision statement since 2016.” Topcon Research, Validation Center Topcon’s dedication to sustainability is further demonstrated by the inauguration of a new 60-acre Research & Validation Center at its global headquarters in Livermore, Calif. Its team has worked closely with Alameda County in the approval and development of this expansive, ecologically diverse location that will support the increasing needs for research and validation of new technologies, the company said. The site was strategically planned in collaboration with students and faculty from the BioResource and Agricultural Engineering Department at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. The team employed a multi-disciplinary approach, providing a site analysis with soil evaluations and recommend-

ed crops, maps for planting and additional site development recommendations. This new facility joins global validation centers in Concordia, Italy, and Adelaide, Australia, all working on research and validation of innovative precision technologies. “Through these three centers, there is research and testing under way at Topcon, somewhere in the world, any time of day,” Gomes said. TPS Global Headquarters Moves to Solar Power Another recent initiative is the conversion to solar power for the Livermore campus. Initial planning began in October 2022, and the project is under way. Once the project is completed, the campus, including multiple buildings, manufacturing facilities and electric car charging stations, will be powered by solar energy. “This is a great opportunity for us to reduce our Scope 2 emissions and energy costs,” Gomes said.

Stellar’s torq-isolator crane support design isolates the crane compartment from the rest of the side pack. This allows the lifting stresses to be channeled through stabilizers and a robust box-type subframe, safeguarding compartment doors and enhancing overall structural integrity, the manufacturer

said. Adaptability is key, and the TMAX 1-11 delivers with an aluminum extruded top boasting drill-free mounting rails. This feature makes adding a diverse range of mechanic service truck accessories effortless, giving users the flexibility to tailor the truck to their specific needs and enhance its capabilities as their requirements change. The TMAX 1-11’s double-panel 1/8 in. aluminum tailgate, complete with hinged arm brackets, presents a robust working surface for enhanced productivity. Compartment options include 250-lb.capacity, adjustable divider shelves constructed from spangled galvanized steel and drawer sets, both offering practical storage solutions for various tools and equipment. A durable undercoating, featuring a petroleum base material, shields the TMAX 1-11 from corrosion and road debris, ensuring its longevity and reliability in diverse environments. Additional features: • 21 in. steel workbench bumper with

integrated full-width long bar storage compartment and vise mounts ensures a versatile workspace. • Stainless-steel billet-style hinges with hidden fasteners and a robust 5/16 in. stainless-steel rod guarantee years of heavy-duty use. • Rotating master-lock system provides top-notch security, safeguarding valuable tools and equipment. • Exterior mounted light box simplifies accessory installation while minimizing potential entry points. • 3-point compression latches maintain tight weatherstripping, ensuring weather resistance while allowing easy access. In addition, the TMAX 1-11 mechanic truck is expertly configured to seamlessly accommodate Stellar Hydraulic Service Cranes, including the Stellar 8630 Hydraulic Service Crane. The 8630 crane boasts 8,600lb. capacity and a 30 ft. of reach. The crane’s distinctive boom design strikes the perfect balance between weight reduction and unwavering strength, while

the compact boom tip effortlessly extends into tight spaces, the manufacturer said. What’s more, users can elevate their control with the CDTpro Control System with Range Finder technology. Users also can add a Stellar lube skid to their TMAX 1-11. A lube skid reduces downtime and saves money by letting users perform lube services in the field as an affordable alternative to a dedicated lube truck. Mobile and permanent lube skid options are available, along with a range of new and waste oil tank capacities. Finally, adding a Stellar air compressor to the TMAX 1-11 gives users the power to complete a wide variety of jobs out in the field — quickly, effectively and efficiently. For instance, the Stellar 40P Single-Stage Air Compressor is a lightweight, hydraulically driven, reciprocating compressor that pairs aluminum and cast steel to control weight while producing a maximum output of 40 cfm and up to 150 psi air pressure.

Fontaine Specialized Unveils Enhancements to Its Lineup Of Magnitude EQ Spreaders

Kenworth recently announced the latest iteration of its Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) is now available for Kenworth T680s. The enhancements are part of the Bendix Fusion system and feature Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Stop and Auto Go.

Kenworth Makes New ADAS Types Available for T680 Kenworth recently announced the latest iteration of its Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) is now available for Kenworth T680s. The enhancements are part of the Bendix Fusion system and feature Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Stop and Auto Go. When a commercial truck follows a lead vehicle in cruise control, this enhancement enables the system to apply braking to maintain a safe following distance and will bring the truck to a complete stop, if necessary, and will hold the truck in place. When the truck can move forward, it will automatically accelerate to the vehicle set speed without driver intervention and maintain a safe following distance. In the event a truck departs the roadway, the new Highway Departure Braking to Zero feature will provide an audible chime and apply braking to reduce vehicle speed if the vehicle begins departing the roadway. In some circumstances, the system may reduce the vehicle speed to a full stop until the driver re-engages. In addition to these new features, Kenworth is building upon its previous driver assistance system offerings with improved Adaptive Cruise Control, Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), and more. Kenworth’s ADAS driver technology suite includes Collision Mitigation, designed to alert the driver to nearby vehicles and objects so pre-emptive braking action can be taken; Lane Departure Warning, providing continual monitoring of the truck’s location to prevent lane drift, and Side Object Detection, alerting the driver with audible and visual notifications to help with safe navigation and lane changes. Advanced driver assistance technologies complement safe driving practices. No commercial vehicle safety technology replaces a skilled, alert driver exercising safe driving techniques and proactive, comprehensive driving training. Responsibility for the safe operation of the vehicle remains with the driver at all times. For more information, visit www.kenworth.com. 

BABA Policy Has Been in Existence Since Late 1970s POLICY from page 1

any other period, at 11.9 percent. BTS also noted that highway construction costs jumped in the last 9 of 10 quarters through the first quarter of 2023. “Over the 10 quarters, highway construction costs grew 53.8 percent,” reported the federal bureau. Double-Edged Sword The Biden administration has heavily campaigned the Buy America Act (BABA) with a goal of growing the policy into new areas. A proposed new rulemaking project with a goal of applying BABA to manufactured products is scheduled to be published in April. “Until the proposal is published, we cannot gauge likely impacts,” said Marc Scribner, transportation policy analyst of think tank Reason Foundation. “If the rule is expansive in scope, it is likely to impose significant new construction costs on state departments of transportation.” Scribner said the fed’s eagerness to leverage BABA’s expansion is “especially unfortunate” for state transportation agencies. States “have seen highway construction costs increase by 50 percent over the past two years.” Congress imposed BABA procurement requirements for federally funded state highway projects during the Carter administration. The 1978 Surface Transportation Assistance Act made the use of domestic steel, iron and manufactured products mandatory for federally funded projects. A general waiver was applied back then to products and materials, other than structural steel, used in highway construction. Scribner said in 1983 Congress find-tuned BABA requirements and maintained the general waiver for manufactured products. “In doing so, FHWA agreed that it was ‘very difficult to identify the various materials and then trace their origin’ in complex manufactured products,” he said. The BABA waiver for manufactured products has held its place on the federal policy books since then. But labor unions and manufacturers both have opposed the general waiver all this time, citing protectionist issues. According to Scribner, the anti-trade lobby scored a significant win with IIJA, which included the BABA. “BABA expressed a general policy preference against any ‘waiver … not limited to the use of specific products for use in a specific project.’” The Biden administration has applauded the $92 million increase in highway spending that was a major chunk of IIJA. “Unfortunately, it is increasingly likely that inflation will wipe out the entirety of

that funding increase,” believes Scribner. “New Buy America requirements on manufactured products will make this problem even worse.” He notes the federal Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) has the impacts of BABA on FHWA projects listed as “undetermined.” Scribner believes this suggests the final rule will determine where annual costs land on the status scale. It’s a matter of whether costs reach $100 million, considered “major” status, or $200 million, “significant” status. “FHWA could choose to combine any narrowing or repeal of the general waiver with a more robust and permissive productspecific waiver process.” Scribner maintains that policymakers need to understand that in the “real world of budget constraints,” cost increases translate to less work. “Federally mandated cost increases necessarily translate to fewer transportation projects and reduced benefits for Americans,” he said. “The best option would be for Congress to reconsider BABA and instead codify a general manufactured products waiver.” This would reduce uncertainty and avoid cost increases associated with the “significant” interpretation of BABA’s manufactured products application, he said. Industry’s Perspective As an example of the tenuous situation, Washington State finds its transportation construction activity hamstrung by construction inflation. WSDOT advertised a Seattle bridge project with a cost of just more than $800 million. The agency received only two bids, and the lowest was approximately $1.3 billion. “Such a massive overshoot of the estimated price tag is cause for concern to lawmakers on its own,” wrote David Kroman of the Seattle Times. In July, the state awarded a contract for work on I-405 toll lanes that was $230 million over its estimated price. And a contract for related work on Highway 167 was 40 percent over the estimation. The price to convert three ferries to hybrid-electric went up by $30 million, or 25 percent, according to the Times. The situation has state lawmakers concerned. Washington is on a “15-year sprint” to build out its transportation network. “It makes it tough to do all of the projects we’ve voted on to pass and to do,” Sen. Curtis King said. “It makes it tough to meet those promises.” Several factors are at play, including material costs, supply-chain delays — and inflation.

“But WSDOT has raised particular alarm about a trend noticed over the last year and a half: declining competition for large designbuild contracts,” wrote Kroman. As recently as 2021, the state averaged more than six bids per project. So far in 2023, that number has dropped to around 2.5, he noted. “It’s certainly a concerning trend because we have a lot of design builds coming up in the next couple of years,” said Chris Christopher, WSDOT. The combined demand for contractors and labor shortages has created a one-two punch in the gut for the state’s transportation build-out. “We’ve got a lot of large contracts happening and the contractors who are capable … are not as numerous as they need to be,” said Sen. Marko Liias. As a result, the state is considering ways to create more appeal for smaller contractors, including breaking these megaprojects into multiple, smaller contracts. For now, Rep. Jake Fey proposed rejecting Highway 520 bids and revisiting the details of the project. “We don’t have another $500 million laying around.” FHWA’s Take On Index Results It’s a situation affecting contractors across the transportation construction spectrum and well beyond Washington State. In analyzing the latest NHCC index results, FHWA reported that for the second quarter of 2023 a 3.8 percent increase continued from the first quarter. “Compared to the historical quarterly average of 1.4 percent growth, this is still higher than average inflation,” said FHWA. The agency said the numbers are “less than the high inflation observed during 2021 and 2022, where average quarterly growth was 5.2 percent.” They suggested that elevated inflation in 2021 and 2022 may have been driven by supply chain disruptions and fluctuating oil prices. “Current trends in the index indicate that as these factors stabilize, the NHCCI may revert to its long-term average.” Overall changes in such constructionrelated indexes suggests an easing of inflation on material prices, said FHWA. “Divergence in producer price index [PPI] and NHCCI suggests factors other than material input prices may be contributing to NHCCI inflation,” it said. “Notably, the PPI for asphalt showed a 20.5 percent increase during 2023 Q2 after showing a 22.2 percent decrease during 2023 Q1.” Other construction-related PPI such as materials, concrete products and fabricated structural metal showed modest inflation

between 0-2 percent. “The asphalt price volatility combined with relatively stable prices for other material may partially explain why the NHCCI continues to outpace the PPI.” The Real Numbers, Crunched The Eno Center noted that when FHWA released its latest cost index, it had to admit construction inflation had not slowed. In fact, the transportation think tank said, the cost of building highways increased by 3.8 percent in the second quarter of 2023. That figure is equivalent to a 15.3 percent annual inflation rate, said the policy organization. “This shows that, even though inflation had lessened elsewhere in the economy by that point, it was not yet done with highway construction.” FHWA tracks construction costs quarterly through the NHCC index. In mid-2021, according to Eno, the index began growing rapidly. It peaked in the April-June 2022 quarter, and had a “temporary respite” in the fourth quarter of 2022, after which acceleration began once more. “Since the end of 2020, the NHCCI says that highway construction costs have increased by 59.3 percent,” reported the Eno Center. The organization is not surprised by the fact that the largest share of the increase was from rises in the cost of asphalt, dictated by the price of petroleum. “But the second-largest cause of the quarterly increase was from traffic control, which is particularly labor-intensive,” said Eno policy analysts. FHWA concluded that while it’s suggested labor costs are a driving factor in NHCCI inflation, the “relatively low and stable inflation” proves inconsistent “The disparities in growth among the indices underline that each index’s sensitivity to broader events varies,” said the federal agency. Those factors include COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions, material shortages, and oil price swings, FHWA added. “New FHWA spending obligations in fiscal years 2021, 2022 and the first three quarters of 2023 totaled $152 billion,” noted Eno. The organization suggests re-basing highway construction costs the last quarter of 2020, then deflate everything after that. The result is that $152 million in new obligations deflates to a “real” total of $116 billion, according to the Eno Center. The think tank figures that $35.2 billion in real buying power of the IIJA and regular funding has been lost to highway construction cost inflation since then.  CEG
